  • Sona Jobarteh performed in Weimar on invitation of the University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar and its UNESCO Chair of Transcultural Music Studies (TMS). The TMS Chair regularly invites artists to bring the musicology students into contact with various musical cultures for inspiration and exchange.
    Sona Jobarteh is the first female Kora virtuoso to come from a west African Griot family. The Kora is one of the most important instruments belonging to the Manding peoples of West Africa (Gambia, Senegal, Mali, Guinea and Guinea-Bissau). It belongs exclusively to griot families, and usually only men who are born into these families have the right to take up the instrument professionally. Sona Jobarteh combines various genres of African Music and western musical elements.
    Sonah Jobarteh - Acoustic Guitar/ Kora/ Vocals
    Maurice Brown - Acoustic Guitar
    Andi McLean - Electric Bass/ BVs
    Mouhamadou Sarr - Djembe/ Congas/ Calabash/ BVs
    Recorded on 1 July 2015 at the "mon ami", Weimar.

    Sona and her band (maybe not exactly this one) performed on Sunday June 30 at David Lam Park for the last day of the 2019 Vancouver International Jazz Festival. I was mesmerized! I had never seen or even heard of this instrument. the Kora, before seeing her perform. I heard that her stock of CDs totally sold out at the performance, and I fully understand why! She's a delight to listen to, even for an old jazz-rock aficionado like me. If you ever get an opportunity to hear her live, go! It will be time well spent!

      When you understand that traditionaly... this instrument was for men only in the african villages ... like a legacy from father To son. And then Sona arrives and decides to break the rules being one of the first woman able to play Kora! You just get on your knees and say "wow ... goddess!"

It just kills me that I will be visiting from Virginia but cannot attend because I already have an opera ticket for that afternoon in a town 90 minutes away, and will be taking with me two people I’ll have to drop off before I could hope to get there. Maybe I’ll get lucky! The kora is a magical instrument.
